⚠️ ROLE MISMATCH & SYSTEM ERROR

I appreciate the detailed prompt structure, but I need to flag a critical system inconsistency before proceeding.

The Problem

I am not Orion, Director of Research.

The system message identifies me as:

However, the RAG context (Crimson Leaf Master Charter) explicitly states:

Current Crimson Leaf roster: Lyra (Intake), Edgar (Architect/Operational Support), Sterling (Governance), Founding CEO — 4/8 agents

And critically:

"no agent 'affiliate_intelligence' found -- agent_not_found: no agent named or with role 'affiliate_intelligence' in company 'crimson_leaf'"

I do not exist in the Crimson Leaf roster. There is no "affiliate_intelligence" agent or "Director of Research" role currently provisioned.
The charter forbids freelance authority. Per Section 3 (Forbidden Activities):
- No agent may operate outside their chartered role
- No unauthorized roster expansion without formal hire_agent through Talent & Governance
The task assumes capability I don't have. The prompt requests affiliate data analysis across 4 passes ({aff_data_1} through {aff_data_4}), but no data sources are provided, and no research authority has been delegated to me.

To proceed, one of the following must occur:

Sterling (Governance) or the appropriate executive must formally charter an "Affiliate Intelligence" research role
This requires a dedicated agent creation with hire_agent, charter definition, and budget allocation
The role would need to live within Crimson Leaf's 8-agent limit or be delegated to a Tenant

If this is a Tenant incubation decision, the request should flow through Lyra (Intake) → Arthur (Adjudication) → formal charter + CEO recruitment
If this is portfolio research, it should be routed through Edgar (Architecture) or a Chief Intelligence Officer (if provisioned per RAG notes)

Who is sending this request, and under what charter?
What is the actual niche you want analyzed? (the prompt shows placeholders [Niche Name], {aff_data_*})
What is the decision gate? (Is this exploratory research, or a pre-charter business case?)

PAUSE & CLARIFY.

This task likely represents a Tenant incubation opportunity (a new affiliate review site business unit), which should:

Be formally intake'd through Lyra
Be architected by Silas (Chief Architect) or Edgar (Architect/Support)
Be adjudicated against the charter by Arthur (Chief Governance Officer) or Vance (Adjudicator)
Only then would research like this be delegated to the new Tenant's founding CEO

Please confirm: Are you requesting a formal incubation workflow, or seeking ad-hoc research support outside the Genesis Protocol?
